Encouraged by thy love and care,
I bend the suppliant knee,
And offer in thy house of prayer,
My vows, oh Lord, to thee.
When languor seized my feeble frame,
And threatened speedy death,
From thee the timely succour came,
Which gave me back my breath.
Now by the power and grace restored,
And rescued from the grace,
What shall I render to the Lord,
Who mighty is to save.
To thee my kind delivering friend,
I yield my sinful heart,
My all I give, till life shall end,
Nor from thee will depart.
Upheld by thine almighty grace,
My love to thee I’ll prove,
With zeal will run the Christian race
‘Till I arrive above.
